Questions
How big is the PHOBOS PAA PCB?
It measures 254 × 101.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the PHOBOS PAA use?
8 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the PHOBOS PAA KiCad files?
From the K-Eckert15/ARES repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PHOBOS/PHOBOS_PAA/PHOBOS_PAA.kicad_pcb and its schematic DEIMOS/INSIGHT/INSIGHT (conflicted copy 2026-09-14 235045).kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the PHOBOS PAA design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask K-Eckert15 before reusing the design.
